Johnny and Janet,

I am very sorry for the loss of your dad. As we know, it is hard to lose a parent. He will live on through you and your children. Remember the fun times and laugh.

He was an awesome Santa for me and Greg. Even tho I didn't know it at the time! I will always remember the story about him and my dad meeting up during the war. I think they were both shocked to see each other. I will keep him and you in my prayers.

We would like to extend our sympathy to Leo's family. I was a fellow usher at St. Pius 50 years ago. He was a life long friend. Please be assured that Leo and his loved ones will be remembered in our daily prayers.
